The Seven Wonders of Houston?
Claudia Feldman has written a piece today for the Chron, listing the Chronicle's picks for Houston's Seven Wonders:
The Astrodome, 8400 Kirby
Beer Can House, 222 Malone
Houston Ship Channel
Interstate 10 and Beltway 8 interchange
Menil compound, the 1400 and 1500 blocks of Sul Ross and Branard
Saturn V rocket at the Johnson Space Center, 2101 NASA Parkway
Quan Am sculpture, 10002 Synott Road
What do you think? Like some of the comments on the Chron's story, we are perplexed at a couple of the choices. A freeway interchange? Really?
I think the Williams Tower and Waterwall should be considered for the list. What about the tunnels? And can we throw in an honorable mention for any of sculptor David Adickes' works? Feel free to offer your thoughts and suggestions in the forum.
